I like Black Forest cake very much. Unfortunately, it is hard to find a good one in the local bakeries. Most places do not use enough alcohol, if they even use any in the first place, so it feels as though
Make Your Own Caspian Sea Yoghurt
I found a new thing to do, and that is making yoghurt. I love eating yoghurt, especially Greek yoghurt with honey and granola. But eating store-bought yoghurt regularly costs quite a bit of money, so I thought about making it.
Frangipane Tart With Macerated Strawberries
I am very fond of fruit tarts. My earliest memories of fruit tarts are the ones sold in Delifrance. I ate these tarts very often when I was in junior college, at a time when a tart costs $1.80.
Baking Class At Dulcet & Studio
At the urging of a good friend, I signed up for a baking class at Dulcet & Studio, Tampopo’s new restaurant-cum-studio at Liang Court, one of my favourite malls because it houses Mediya, Nirai Kanai and Shin Yeh. I love
Lao Ban-style Beancurd
I was totally mad for Lao Ban beancurd when the beancurd fad descended on Singapore two years ago. I would join the long queues that formed at various times of the day just to eat the cold pudding-like beancurd, made
Pandan Chiffon Cake + Earl Grey Chiffon Cake
I love pandan chiffon cakes and the Bengawan Solo version is my favorite. Their pandan cakes are so soft, moist and flavourful. I can eat one whole pandan cake on my own. I have tried baking chiffon cakes several times,

Pumpkin Bread with a Pistachio-Almond Topping
This is the output from last Sunday’s baking class at Maple & Market. The bread was delicious, but I am not sure if I will ever try to make them at home on my own. These baking classes are quite
Red Velvet Cupcakes With Cream Cheese Frosting
I attended another baking class with Sarah of Sarah’s Loft today. We made red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. It was super fun. I like her classes because the class size is small with plenty of interaction between the
Japanese Strawberry Shortcake
I love the Japanese Strawberry Shortcake – it is a popular Christmas and birthday cake in Japan. It is my favourite cake. A confectionary of sponge cake, whipped cream and strawberries. It is so pretty to look at. And because
